Summary

In Latin America and the Caribbean, between 50% and 65% of new HIV infections occur in key populations. Improving the availability and coverage of HIV/STI services for these populations requires the support of monitoring systems that are sustainable and adapt to the needs of the countries of the region. To respond to this need, the Pan American Health Organization, through an agreement with The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, has developed the Framework for Monitoring HIV/STI Services for Key Populations in Latin America and the Caribbean.
